I used /home/cvs and was able to check it out, but I also used my account
instead of anoncvs.
But it does not build because src/regex.[ch] are not found. Were these
symlinks in the old repository or something strange like that? When I do a
`cvs update' I get:
cvs server: Updating .
cvs server: nothing known about regex.c
cvs server: nothing known about regex.h
cvs server: Updating bitmaps
cvs server: Updating m
cvs server: Updating s
